Former Barcelona star Ronaldinho has poured cold water on suggestions that Lionel Messi could return to Camp Nou this summer.
The Brazilian’s comments came after Messi’s dad Jorge admitted he "hopes" his son returns to Barcelona "someday" after leaving the club last summer. The Argentine’s career at Paris Saint-Germain has not gone to plan since his move to the Parc des Princes a year ago, and he has found the net just six times in 26 domestic appearances for Les Parisiens.
Ronaldinho and Messi shared a warm embrace ahead of PSG's Champions League clash against RB Leipzig back in October – when the Brazilian was a guest of honour. The two were very close friends during their playing days together at Barca, were Ronaldinho helped a young Messi embed into the first-team squad and they have remained close over the years since.
